Project description:The ShkA-ShpA-TacA phosphorelay regulates stalk biogenesis and G1-S phase transition in Caulobacter crescentus. Histidine kinase activity of ShkA is c-di-GMP dependent and a strain lacking c-di-GMP (cdG0) shows a number of phenotypic aberrations. In this project, we aim at disentangling the contribution of ShkA-ShpA-TacA pathway dysregulation to the cdG0 phenotype by profiling the proteomes of mutants that constitutively activate or deactivate TacA target gene expression.

Project description:Exosomes are nanovesicles involved in intercellular communications. They are released by a variety of cell types; however, their presence in the inner ear has not been described in the literature. The aims of this study were to determine if exosomes are present in the inner ear and, if present, characterize the changes in their protein content in response to ototoxic stress. In this laboratory investigation, inner ear explants of 5-day-old Wistar rats were cultured and treated with either cisplatin or gengentamicin. Exosomes were isolated using ExoQuick, serial centrifugation, and mini-column methods. Confirmation and characterization of exosomes was carried out using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), ZetaView, BCA protein analysis, and proteomics. Vesicles with a typical size distribution for exosomes were observed using TEM and ZetaView. Proteomic analysis detected typical exosome markers and markers for the organ of Corti. There was a statistically significant reduction in the exosome protein level and number of particles per cubic centimeter when the samples were exposed to ototoxic stress. Proteomic analysis also detected clear differences in protein expression when ototoxic medications were introduced. This is the first report describing exosomes derived from the inner ear. Because these exosomes varied in number and protein composition when the inner ear was exposed to ototoxic stress, the exciting possibility exists that they might be used as biomarkers to monitor inner ear function.

Project description:Maintaining skeletal muscle mass is of high importance as muscle atrophy like during sarcopenia or cachexia lead to a decrease in independence and a higher risk of morbidity and mortality. A leading compound in the treatment against ageing and cancer is rapamycin, an inhibitor of mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). Whether the treatment with mTORC1 inhibitors would work at a cost of losing muscle mass is unclear, as most studies have been focusing on the role of mTORC1 specifically during hypertrophy. In order to answer this question we developed an inducible muscle specific knockout mouse model in which raptor can be ablated during adulthood to eliminate mTORC1 activity. We analysed the muscles after different time points and found that after 3 months the mice showed a fiber shift towards slower fiber types, a loss in oxidative capacity but only very few myopathic features. After 5 months the myopathic features became more apparent, however it did not largely affect the ex vivo muscle force. Surprisingly despite the myopathy we did not see a significant loss of muscle mass even after 5 months, that we hypothesised based on mTORC1s central role in protein synthesis. We assume that the myopathy after long-term mTORC1 inactivation is mostly a result of secondary effects through the loss of mitochondria, alterations in metabolism and in cytoskeletal components. In conclusion, during skeletal muscle maintenance mTORC1 is more essential for metabolic processes than it is for maintaining basal muscle mass.Maintaining skeletal muscle mass is of high importance as muscle atrophy like during sarcopenia or cachexia lead to a decrease in independence and a higher risk of morbidity and mortality.

Project description:Nuclear receptor binding SET domain protein 1 (NSD1) is recurrently mutated in human cancers including acute leukemia. We found that NSD1 knockdown altered erythroid clonogenic growth of human CD34+ hematopoietic cells. Ablation of Nsd1 in the hematopoietic system induced a transplantable erythroleukemia in mice. Despite abundant expression of the transcriptional master regulator GATA1, in vitro differentiation of Nsd1-/- erythroblasts was majorly impaired associated with reduced activation of GATA1-induced targets, while GATA1-repressed target genes were less affected. Retroviral expression of wildtype Nsd1, but not a catalytically-inactive Nsd1N1918Q SET-domain mutant induced terminal maturation of Nsd1-/- erythroblasts. Despite similar GATA1 levels, exogenous Nsd1 but not Nsd1N1918Q significantly increased GATA1 chromatin occupancy and target gene activation. Notably, Nsd1 expression reduced the association of GATA1 with the co-repressor SKI, and knockdown of SKI induced differentiation of Nsd1-/- erythroblasts. Collectively, we identified the NSD1 methyltransferase as a novel regulator of GATA1-controlled erythroid differentiation and leukemogenesis.

Project description:High NH4+ load is known to competitively inhibit bacterial methane oxidation. This is due to a competition between CH4 and NH4+/NH3 for the active site of particulate methane monooxygenase (pMMO), which converts CH4 to CH3OH. Here, we combined growth experiments with global proteomics to elucidate the capability of the methanotroph Methylocystis sp. strain SC2 in acclimatizing to increased NH4+ levels. Our experimental approach also involved amino acid profiling and measurement of NOx compounds. Relative to 1 mM NH4+, high (50 mM and 75 mM) NH4+ load under CH4 replete conditions significantly increased lag phase duration required for proteome adjustment. The proteomic and metabolic responses to increasing ionic and osmotic stress involved significant upregulation of stress-responsive proteins, K+ “salt in” strategy, synthesis of compatible solutes (glutamate and proline), and induction of the glutathione metabolism pathway. A significant increase in the apparent Km value for CH4 oxidation during the growth phase was indicative of increased pMMO-based oxidation of NH4+/NH3 to toxic hydroxylamine. The detoxifying activity of hydroxlyamine oxidoreductase (HAO) led to a significant accumulation of NO2- and, upon decreasing O2 tension, N2O. Putative free intermediate of HAO activity was NO, with NO reductase and hybrid cluster proteins (Hcps) being the candidate enzymes for the reduction of NO to N2O. In summary, strain SC2 has the capacity to precisely rebalance enzymes and osmolyte composition, but the need to simultaneously combat both ionic-osmotic stress and the toxic effects of hydroxylamine may be the reason why its acclimatization capacity is limited to 75 mM NH4+.

Project description:Substitution of hydrogen for deuterium strongly affects biological systems. While higher eukaryotes, such as plants and mammals, hardly survive >30% deuterium content of water and nutrients, many microorganisms can grow on fully deuterated media albeit at reduced rates. Due to the large relative mass change, H/D replacement leads to pronounced changes in chemical reaction rates and equilibria. Very little is known how these physico-chemical effects influence cellular life at the systems level. Here we have followed the adaptation of a large part of the E. coli proteome from growth on a protonated full medium, over a protonated minimal to a completely deuterated minimal medium. More than 1800 proteins could be quantified under all conditions and several hundreds show strong regulation in both adaptation processes. As expected, the adaption to minimal medium mostly upregulates amino acid synthesis and sugar metabolism. In contrast, deuteration causes a very wide response over many cell function categories. No morphological effects are apparent under light and electron microscopy. Most of the regulated proteins have enzymatic functions involving hydrogen transfer reactions. This indicates that kinetic isotope effects and not changes in biomolecular stability are the dominant mechanisms that affect cellular function under deuteration.

Project description:Metabolic heterogeneity modulates productivity, antibiotic resistance and cancer aggressiveness. Since metabolic fluxes represent the functional output of metabolism, with glycolytic flux correlating with highly-productive phenotypes and cancer, such flux map will be indicative of the cellular metabolic state. Therefore, the quantification of metabolic fluxes is vital to identify the existence of metabolic subpopulations and to understand the process of their emergence at the single-cell level. However, so far inference of metabolic fluxes in individual cells is not possible as no method is available. Here, we developed a biosensor for glycolytic flux measurements in single yeast cells drawing on the robust correlation between fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) and flux levels in yeast, and using the B. subtilis FBP-binding transcription factor CggR. We followed a systematic engineering approach starting from promoter design, computational protein design and protein engineering, accompanied by strict characterization of the biosensor using different biochemical methods, proteomics, metabolomics and physiological analyses. As proof of principle, we applied the biosensor in vivo in the search for metabolic subpopulations in yeast cultures and, using fluorescence microscopy, we demonstrated that quiescent yeast cells have low glycolytic fluxes in comparison to coexisting dividing cells. We anticipate that our biosensor will contribute with unprecedented resolution for the study of metabolic subpopulations, to understand how and why metabolic subpopulations emerge and, very importantly, give clues on how to counteract the undesirable effects of such.

Project description:DP-ribosylation factors (Arfs) are small GTPases regulating membrane traffic in the secretory pathway. They are closely related and appear to have overlapping functions, regulators, and effectors. The functional specificity of individual Arfs and the extent of redundancy are still largely unknown. We addressed these questions by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genomic deletion of the human class I (Arf1/3) and class II (Arf4/5) Arfs, either individually or in combination. Most knockout cell lines were viable with slight growth defects only when lacking Arf1 or Arf4. However, Arf1+4, and Arf4+5 could not be deleted simultaneously. Class I Arfs are non-essential and Arf4 alone is sufficient for viability. Upon Arf1 deletion, the Golgi was enlarged and recruitment of vesicle coats decreased, confirming a major role of Arf1 in vesicle formation at the Golgi. Knockout of Arf4 caused secretion of ER-resident proteins, indicating specific defects in coatomer-dependent ER protein retrieval by KDEL receptors. The knockout cell lines will be useful tools to study other Arf-dependent processes.

Project description:Sodium chloride is an important ionic-osmotic stressor in bulk and rhizosphere soils. Members of the alphaproteobacterial genus Methylocystis are known to have a low salt tolerance (≤ 1.0% NaCl),despite the fact that these methane oxidizers are soil inhabitants. We therefore tested various amino acids and other well-known osmolytes for their potential to act as a compatible solute or osmoprotectant under otherwise growth-inhibitory NaCl conditions. Besides ornithine, the addition of 10 mM asparagine to the medium had the greatest stress relief effect under severe salinity (1.50% NaCl), leading to a partial growth recovery of strain SC2. The analysis of its exo-metabolome revealed that asparagine was taken up quantitatively. This resulted in an intracellularconcentration of 264 ± 57 mM asparagine, with a certain portion hydrolyzed to aspartate (4.20 ± 1.41 mM). In addition to general and oxidative stress responses, the uptake of asparagine induced 34 major proteome rearrangements related to the KEGG level 2 categories energy metabolism, amino acid metabolism, and cell growth and death. In particular, various proteins involved in cell division (e.g., ChpT, CtrA, PleC, FtsA, FtsH1) and peptidoglycan synthesis showed a positive expression response. Asparagine-derived 13C-carbon was incorporated into nearly all amino acids. Both the exo-metabolome and the 13C-labeling degree suggests that in addition to aspartate, the amino acids glutamate, glycine, serine, and alanine, but also pyruvate and malate, were most crucially involved in the osmoprotective effect of asparagine, with glutamate being a major hub between the central carbon and amino acid pathways. In summary, asparagine induced significant proteome rearrangements, leading to major changes in the flux of central metabolites and free amino acids. In consequence, asparagine acted, in part, as a carbon and nitrogen source for the growth recovery of strain SC2 under severe salinity (1.50% NaCl).
